Like everyone else, I knew about the price and AF (good enough for me) of the RX1, so I don't complain. What I did not know is that since my first times with 6x6 cameras, then the Contax RTS and later with the Canon 5D and others, I have never been so satisfied with the IQ of a camera. On top of it, the RX1 is extremely well built and fits in the pocket of my coat. Hence my love-love relationship with the RX1, an exceptionally splendid camera.
